Counterstrike 1.6 lag and full screen issues

Post by iamsmrt »

Hey all, just upgraded to wine 1.2rc7 and am noticing an issue while playing cs1.6. I'll be playing in full screen mode when all of a sudden my regular xcursor will "pop-up" over my crosshair and intense lag starts up (FPS < ~5). It's almost as if something is competing with counterstrike for video output. Anyways, I've found that if I alt tab, then alt tab back, it fixes the lag temporarily but I now get the problem that my dock pops up over cs and the whole game seems to be shifted downwards a few pixels. I'm at a loss here, if more info is needed, just let me know.

Cheers,
SMRT

I am smart (snicker...)

Ok. Now that I've had my laugh, are you running this on an Intel Mac
computer?

Nope, it's 4 year old Lenovo laptop with Intel integrated graphics. I don't think it's really the hardware that's the issue here (though integrated graphics are an issue to begin with) because I wasn't experiencing this problem until recently.

Any Operating System changes or upgrades? It is very strange that an
update to Wine would do this.

I noticed I upgraded my intel driver a few days earlier so I downgraded it and so far I haven't noticed any lag.
